Nashua, NH — Nashua firefighters extinguished a giant fire at a Bay Ridge apartment complex Sunday in extreme conditions as the heat index soared close to 100.

Two firefighters were hospitalized with heat exhaustion. They were expected to recover.

Dozens of residents were displaced.

The was fire caused by a propane grill, according to Deputy fire Chief Karl Gerhard. It broke out at about 5 p.m. and was declared under control by about 6 p.m.

"Although the fire heavily damaged the building, 50 percent of the building was saved due to a fire wall slowing fire spread, aggressive fire attack by all fire companies on scene ... and adequate staffing, which allows multiple tasks to be completed in a shorter time frame," Gerhard said in a statement. "All these elements combined provided the best outcome possible given the situation found upon arrival."

Temperatures soared into the high 90s Sunday as firefighters battled the blaze.

Scores of firefighters from Nashua and nine other communities, including across the border in Massachusetts, helped fight the fire.

The Red Cross offered assistance to those displaced.

"In this volatile time in society, the citizens of Nashua should take comfort in the fact that their Nashua area agencies will always prepare and provide our citizens help, and support, when they need it most," Gerhard added.
